Seems that the parts that usually end up mis-matched in Lugers tend to be the grips, firing pin and hold open. I am sure there are several reasons for this but I have learned to strip the pistol down (or have the seller do so for me) before buying the "all matched but magazine" Lugers. A mis matched hold open is not that bad overall.

Another thing to look for on Luger buying is check out the sear/firing pin contact points and make sure no one has been filing on them to make a better trigger pull or whatever. Have seen that a few times also and it is real easy to miss.

I love Lugers but so many of these have been screwed with that it gets to be a crap shoot buying these without handling them first.
